In our Inayati initiation, we say “that from this day you may receive guidance on the path that leads to the fulfillment of life’s purpose, illumination.

Shahabuddin Suhrawardi says “that after their initiation, those who have been invited to the temples of light don the mantel (robe) of light.

Your aura is your initiative robe. It radiates far and wide and lights up the environment. When you come into a room you are aware of the

light of your being that brings sunshine into the room.” Light and Ecstasy

What does it mean — that my life’s purpose is illumination? What is it to be a being of light?
